Pick
and
pay
the
price
yeah
Pick
and
pay
the
price
yeah
Pick
and
pay
the
price
yeah
Pick
and
pay
the
price
yeah
All
my
people
in
the
Southside
won't
you
go
and
raise
your
hands
up
high
All
my
people
in
the
Northside
won't
you
make
sure
you
touch
the
sky
All
my
people
in
the
Eastside,
let
the
sun
rise
on
the
inside
All
my
people
in
the
Westside,
stay
blessed
a'ight
Mama
told
me
there'd
be
days
like
this
I
know
my
daddy
hoped
i
never
witnessed
days
like
his
See
days
like
this
are
the
hardest
To
choose
between
being
an
artist
And
a
man
who's
still
angry
about
the
death
of
Chris
Hani
They
took
away
our
honey
but
we
feel
the
bee
stings
I'm
try'na
get
this
money
not
the
burden
it
brings
But
more
than
these
things,
i
want
my
dignity
Somebody
witness
me,
Amen
Amen
can
no
longer
save
men
Amen,
black
skin
ain't
enough
to
detain
men
Amen,
tell
me
who
changed
the
rules
of
engagement?
The
same
men
who
made
me
suffer
their
entertainment
You
follow
me
'round
the
isle,
you
stalkin'
me
from
the
back[?]
But
tell
me
are
you
looking
for
a
thief
or
you're
looking
for
a
black
man?
Yeah,
funny
how
being
black
can
give
a
nigga
the
blues
A
trolley
full
of
food
became
a
trolley
full
of
clues
"We
know
you
stole
something
'cause
that's
all
you
folks
are
capable
of"
If
you
see
a
black
man,
know
there's
danger
involved
"Now
show
me
that
reciept,
i'm
immune
to
your
deciet"
"You
people
deserve
defeat,
that's
all
you
deserve
to
eat"
"Your
'pant-sagging'
black
self
could'nt
get
this
money
the
right
way"
'Cause
the
right
way
is
the
'white'
way
All
my
people
in
the
Southside
won't
you
go
and
raise
your
hands
up
high
All
my
people
in
the
Northside
won't
you
make
sure
that
you
touch
the
sky
All
my
on
the
Eastside,
let
the
sun
rise
on
your
inside
All
my
people
on
the
Westside,
stay
blessed
I
found
myself
a
Pick'n'
Pay
asking
what
if
i
was
white,
what
if
my
hair
was
bright,
my
eyes
were
not
as
black
as
night
What
if
my
past
was
leaden
with
victories
not
strife
And
if
my
name
was
Jaden
would
i
need
to
prove
i'm
right?
Would
i
be
searced
against
my
will?
Aye!
can
i
pursue
my
happiness
without
reminding
you
of
constitution
hill
What's
the
deal?
what's
the
deal?
The
[?]
i'm
living
in
come
from
me
as
a
black
king
I'm
settling
the
settler
like
Dinuzulu
I
knew
that
i'd
be
thrown
to
the
sharks
i
degraded
Great
Whites
I
never
thought
one
of
the
sharks
would
be
Sisulu
(God
damn)
Bheka
chief
You
see,
it's
not
that
i
didn't
hear
you
make
a
mockery
of
my
abuse
at
the
hands
of
racial
inequality
It's
just
that
the
sound
of
your
grandfather
turning
in
his
grave
Was
harder
for
me
to
ignore
And
i
don't
mean
to
be
spicy,
but
i
hope
Robert
Sun
calls
the
sun
'ilanga'
it
shines
brighter
that
way
And
i
hope
that
he'll
grow
to
call
his
son
'indodana'
he'll
be
a
fighter
that
day
'Cause
MarazA
and
Sphamandla
may
not
be
the
coolest
names
But
atleast
they
were
not
forced
upon
me
for
the
convenience
of
Hellen
Zille's
colonialist
cronies
So
claim
your
name
Black
Child
And
own
it!
All
my
people
in
the
Southside
won't
you
go
and
raise
your
hands
up
high
All
my
people
in
the
Northside
won't
you
make
sure
that
you
touch
the
sky
All
my
people
on
the
Eastside,
let
the
sun
rise
on
your
insides
All
my
people
on
the
Westside,
stay
blessed
a'ight
I
know
that
the
oppressor
wanna
see
me
go
inside
But
i
don't
wanna
go
inside
My
haters
wanna
see
my
failures
and
my
victories
[?]
They
know
my
heart
gold,
they
don't
know
what's
cold
inside
They
wanna
see
me
down,
they
don't
wanna
see
me
winning
They
hate
i
make
my
money
and
i
feed
my
next-of-kin
And
i
make
my
mama
grin
when
i
give
her
bit
of
green
and
she
keep
my
concience
clean
And
my
mama
garden
green
My
nigga
told
me
i
was
the
talk
of
the
whole
town
[?]
I
said
"what
you
mean?"
They
said
there's
another
scandal
that
the
media
need
to
handle
I
said
"that
was
not
a
scandal"
He
said
"what's
your
Twitter
handle?"
So
we
searched
it
and
the
the
talk
had
moved
away
from
that
debate
I
mean
it's
2017
ain't
nobody
talking
race
Comrades
by
face,
but
only
white
face
But
if
it's
a
black
man
then
you
judge
him
by
face
We
can
do
better
one
day,
day,
day,
day
One
day
We
can
do
better
one
day,
day,
day,
day
One
day
